Model 3 Wheel Lock Set - I noticed this was available in the official Tesla store. Can anyone who has already taken delivery advise if the lug nuts that come with the model 3 are a lock set? I thought it was standard these days for that to be the case - especially for luxury vehicles. Thanks!

Delivery center certainly won’t. There goal is provide delivery...no additional services. Service center will but likely at a cost unless you find a kind service advisor. You honestly don’t need the locks. The 19” lugs are hidden behind a cap and 18” are hidden behind the aero hubs. Plus the rims are not anything in demand or worth stealing

They must have been measuring with a ruler or something. I measured my tesla caps at just under 58mm at the widest point (the face). The "fingers" on the back have a 50mm outside diameter and 53mm OD for the "notch" on the fingers. The center of this notch to the back of the face is 9mm.

Also I don't know if it's been mentioned but 4 centercaps cost $60 where the kit with nut covers is only $50.

Has anyone taken delivery of the 18” TST turbine wheels sold by TSportline? They were supposed to start delivery this week.
I ordered the silver turbine wheels and cannot decide what to do with the lug nuts. I don’t want to pay $50 for black plastic covers that do not match. Apparently the chrome lug nut covers are no longer available.
I purchased the chrome Gorilla lug nuts from Evannex,but I don’t know if they will work on the turbine wheels.
